In hindsight I would have preferred an audio tour to wander round at my leisure. Although the guide was good, with plenty of information, I found it a little rushed, and it was quite busy that day with many other tours going at the same time, crossing paths. It's a shame there isn't a one way route around the palaces. However on balance I enjoyed the tour but would go with audio next time. I also felt it was a little expensive.

We joined this tour half way through. They started at the Cathedral and then met us on their way to the Alcazar. I think combining the two without a break would have been a really long day so I'm happy we only did the Alcazar. That said, the communication was good and you get a little audio headset so it's easy to hear. There were probably about 20 people in our group, some with young kids you could tell were getting bored. It was very informative for the adults though! Our guide (I think Caroline) spoke great English, kept it lively, and gave out tons of recommendations. You can stay at the Alcazar at the end and explore more by yourself too (they have a cafe and restrooms on site).

INCREDIBLE! It has been a week since this tour and I cannot stop thinking about the facts, myths, stories and overall experience. Carolina is incredible and was so kind with us locating her and even gave me a mandarin haha. She is ace and I wish I could book her again! Please let me know how I can book her for a private tour when and if possible.
